OK, noted. Even within audience, there is need to distinguish between basic,
intermediate and advanced topics. IMNSHO, trails (and categories and menus)
should be exploited more to aggregate like content and make navigation
easier. One of the best examples for effective use of trails I have seen is
the Java documentation at java.sun.com.

You may have missed this page:
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/DocumentationAudiences

which has been around for a while and has more or less set the naming 
standard that many authors use to classify their pages using the 
%audience%  markup.
